Descriptions

The batch id change script (renameObjectsByPaths.py) in Plone before 4.2.3 and 4.3 before beta 1 allows remote attackers to change the titles of content items by leveraging a valid CSRF token in a crafted request.

La secuencias de comandos de cambio de id de batch (renameObjectsByPaths.py) en Plone anterior a 4.2.3 y 4.3 anterior a beta 1 permite a atacantes remotos cambiar los títulos de elementos del contenido mediante el aprovechamiento de un token CSRF válido en una solicitud manipulada.

It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, allowed a remote anonymous user to change titles of content items due to improper permissions checks.

The Conga project is a management system for remote workstations. It consists of luci, which is a secure web-based front end, and ricci, which is a secure daemon that dispatches incoming messages to underlying management modules. It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly protect the administrator interface. A remote attacker could use this flaw to inject a specially crafted Python statement or script into Plone's restricted Python sandbox that, when the administrator interface was accessed, would be executed with the privileges of that administrator user.
